ODA announces Delivery Partner shortlist

Four companies and consortia will now go through to the next stage which will begin shortly. They are (in alphabetical order):

- Bechtel
- CLM (CH2M Hill International, Laing O'Rourke, Mace)
- G3 (AMEC, Balfour Beatty and Jacobs)
- Legacy (Bovis Lend Lease, Capita Symonds and Kellogg Brown & Root)

David Higgins, chief executive of the ODA, said: "This is a first class shortlist from a very strong field. We will continue the rigorous scrutiny of applications as we now move to the next stage. I am confident that the competitive dialogue procurement process will help ensure we make the right appointment for this critical role."

The ODA is procuring the Delivery Partner via new European procurement legislation which allows 'competitive dialogue' with firms, allowing the ODA to enter into more detailed discussions at the shortlisting stage. This stage will begin shortly with the final appointment made in the summer.
